Wyoming 1st Grade Math: What Students Learn
Wyoming 1st grade math covers a wide range of foundational skills that students will use throughout their school years. Following the Wyoming Mathematics Standards, the curriculum focuses on building number sense, adding and subtracting fluently, understanding place value, and exploring basic geometry and measurement.
Addition and Subtraction Within 20
A major focus of 1st grade math is solving addition and subtraction problems within 20. Students learn to use word problems, add three whole numbers, apply properties of operations, and understand subtraction as finding an unknown addend. By the end of the year, Wyoming students are expected to demonstrate fluency with addition and subtraction within 10.
Place Value and Two-Digit Numbers
Students learn that two-digit numbers are made up of tens and ones. They count to 120, compare two-digit numbers using the symbols >, =, and <, and practice adding within 100. Students also learn to mentally find 10 more or 10 less than any two-digit number and subtract multiples of 10.
Measurement and Data
In 1st grade, Wyoming students order objects by length, measure using whole number units, and tell time in hours and half-hours using both analog and digital clocks. They also organize and interpret data sorted into up to three categories.
Geometry
Students identify defining and non-defining attributes of shapes, compose two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes, and partition circles and rectangles into two or four equal shares. These early geometry skills lay the groundwork for more advanced spatial reasoning in later grades.
